Hi all, I'm new to NI and just got the KOMPLETE Standard 15 bundle. Is it possible to install Native Access on a different hard disk than (C:)? I assume that once installed, Native Access will also install all other plugins/sounds on the same hard disk. Is that correct? If yes, that's a problem because there is not enough space on my (C:) hard disk. A different built-in hard disk (D:) would have enough space. However, during the installation process of Native Access I don't see a way to change the installation location from C: to D:. Am I missing something or is C: hard-coded as installation path in Native Access?

    Native Access requires little to no space. And installing it anywhere but C (where every app should always be installed) you are inviting trouble.

    I suspect no one would ever test NA on any other drive than C.

    If you cannot spare the tiny amount of space that NA needs - you really need to address this well before getting too far into a full blown installation of Komplete etc.

    To your other question - ONLY Native Access AND your actual plugins go on C. All your content can be redirected to a D drive once NA is set up. See Preferences

    Thank you very much for your fast and helpful response, Vocalpoint! If I can still redirect all the other content to D when Native Access is on C, that solves my problem. Will install on C now. :)
